Analyis of the race

First time blinkers proved a boon for SAHRATI whose sweeping run on the outer carried him to a clear cut triumph under the capable Ahmed Ajtebi. The good-looking colt rediscovered his best form of 2007 and proved that a mile and a half holds no perils for him. If the blinkers continue to work he can build on this.

Come On Jonny stuck on gamely from a dropped mark and on ground that would have been quicker than ideal. This run suggests he is on the way back.

 John Terry is a quirky customer who sports a big sheepskin noseband. In the firing line throughout the final furlong and a half and competing off his lowest mark in a fair while, he improved on his first run back on turf, but isn't a straightforward ride.

Prince Sabaah did well to get as close, considering he was stepping up in grade while Profit's Reality would have found this surface too quick for a horse who has had problems.

Coyote Creek was anchored off a risen mark, and never looked like following-up his latest win re-equipped with a visor.
